| Winery | The eight-hectare Hill of Grace vineyard is situated in the historic village of Parrot Hill, four kilometres northwest of Henschke Cellars. First planted in 1860, it was purchased by second-generation Paul Gotthard Henschke in 1891. However, it was not until 1958 that fourth-generation winemaker Cyril Henschke made the first single-vineyard Shiraz from the grapes grown here. The red-brown earth grading to deep silty loam has excellent moisture-holding capacity for these dry-grown vines, which sit at an elevation of 400 metres. The ungrafted vines are trained to the Scott Henry system. Organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyard are supported with under-vine mulching and permanent cover crops. |
